The Power of Pitaya

Nestled in the heart of Diamond Head there’s a local hotspot where all the cool kids hang out.

(Really, the regulars here include the cast of Hawaii 5-0, Lost and even Mr. Fear the Beard himself, Brian Wilson).

Recently, during my weekly visit the Health Bar, I decided to shake things up and swap out my typical Mana Bowl for a new exclusive item on the menu.

Move over Acai, there’s a new super fruit in town and her name is Pitaya.

Also known as dragon fruit, Pitaya is a cactus plant fruit is grown in tropical and subtropical areas including Asia and South America.

Although this exotic tasty treat may seem a little on the flamboyant side, don’t let the pink fool you. This babe is raw, organic and flourishing with antioxidants, vitamins, minerals and a wide-range of health benefits as fierce as her color.

Let me break it down and fill you in on exactly how Pitaya puts the super in super fruit.
